National Puppy Day - March 23, 2020

"What wisdom can you find that is greater than kindness?"

- Jean-Jacques Rousseau - 

It's National Puppy Day Today :)

Since Productivity improves by looking at puppies... so, look at puppies today, OK?!

It's also OK Day
Now... today will be a fun day :)

OK.. so puppies are cute, but also fun to celebrate... don't you think?  Just try not to use it all day and you will see.
The origin of the word is not known but according to some historians, the expression may have come about as an abbreviation of the term “orl korrekt” in the United States in the late 1800's.
OK is perhaps one of the most versatile words in the English language, though these days it has been adopted by many other languages worldwide.
As an interjection and a verb, it can be used to indicate approval or acceptance, while as an adjective to refer to something that is mediocre or average. It can also be used as a discourse marker - it links and organizes written or spoken communication.
To celebrate this all important and expressive word, Allan Metcalf, author of OK: The Improbable Story of America's Greatest Word, suggested making March 23 OK Day. The first such day was celebrated in 2011.

Walk in Faith - Quote of the Day (Proverbs 29:17)
"Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul."

You are surrounded by love, and all it takes to see it and experience it is the faith that is there.  Open your eyes and your heart to the love all around, even amidst challenges and hard times, even with people who are difficult.  Faith is what allows you to be aware of it, accepting of it, and grateful for it.  Love is everywhere.
